Urbanna huh? What are the marina/s & #'s there that you can stay? Anything to do within walking distance of the marina/s? I've always heard of the oyster fest they have there each year...

The boats are only classed by type, i.e. v-bottom, cat etc. We are just starting with classes so we are trying to keep it simple this year. The water is almost always flat where the shoot is being held. It can get a little choppy on the way, but only for a short stretch. Tow on down, it'll be fun..

Reckless,

Dozier Marine has overnight slips available. www.doziermarine.com. I called and they have slips available. Not sure what is within walking/stumbling distance but the web site says a courtesy car is available. That has to be a plus.

which boat ramp would be the closet to the action. I have had to back up a bit this year so I will be in my 17' boston whaler.

How far above the 360 bridge in Tappahannock (sp) is the radar run??

Nauti-

The run is about 15 miles north of the bridge. The closest ramp is at Leedstown. That will put you a couple of miles from the action. Come on over and play on the Rappahannock.

Tentatively planning to launch at Garrett's Marina. Can anyone bless this location as good for a 37 footer on a triple axle trailer?

Sydwayz,

Garrets will be a stretch for your ride. The ramp is not in good condition and the road to get there is very narrow and curvy. The tides have been running very high early in the morning and late in the evening. June Parker should work if you get down early and catch the tide high. If not Urbanna should accommodate your boat.
